I forgot to mention that an odd thing about my experience of seeing the preview of the film Kinsey was that everyone was given a little "door prize" upon entering the theater: a set of refrigerator magnet words, such as in refrigerator poetry kits popular a few years back. None of the words are obscene, though many are suggestive. The bottom half, comprising its own refrigerator magnet, is a badge that says: "KINSEY--Let's talk about sex."
I find this a very strange marketing ploy to say the least, and one that trivializes the very serious themes in the film (and will all the more likely enrage those who find the film obscene and dangerous).
Nonetheless, hopeless pervert that I am, I will be playing with my magnet words and will post something on it at a later time.
